Sea Change

Time was still And nights went forever Was I falling or running from harm? Those seconds froze In between now and never I have carried them for so long My hands were tied And my voice did tremble Who's face is in the mirror today? Well it's over now Life goes on and it's over now Yes it's over now Time moves quickly and it's over now When I could move When time released me I lifted my heavy arms to you But I couldn't see what was behind me Dragging its blackened heart In my car I found an old memory And the fear struck me down in flames But it's over now Life goes on and it's over now Yes it's over now Time moves quickly and it's over now So beware Cause you didn't want to make a fuss You invited him to play with us You ignored all the warnings plus You knew he's a little bit dangerous Paralysis comes in moments of terror Takes me back to the start of it all Excellent news I have one foot and another So I kicked myself in the ass for you Life is for one but hearts are for many And monsters tear you apart if you fall But it's over now Life goes on and it's over now Yes it's over now Time moves quickly and it's over now
